    I think a lot of times the scenes are still done heavily through a male gaze. You’ll see more frontal of her than you ever will of a man.

    Sex in movies always felt awkward because usually it’s a plot device to push the male character’s story, a ‘reward’ for the male character… Or just one of many sexual assault scenes bestowed on nearly every female character ever because “DRAMA.”

    Not all sex scenes are like this, but a LOT of sex scenes are like this.





  • I commented on a post about how shitty misogyny is-- on a sub about shitty misogyny, and the post got brigaded by MRA chuds. So many comments were calling women slurs, grouping women together by saying women are all whores, you name it. Many were upvotes and allowed to stay.

    I got permabanned for MY Comment the next day. I tried to appeal and it got denied. I didn’t suggest violence or even harm. I didn’t drag them. I just didn’t say “Not all men.”

    Reddit bans are incredibly biased and I swear given out by right-wing incels. I’m trying to ween myself from Reddit. Lemmy is good because I’m not endlessly scrolling content. Hopefully the ban actually just gets me closer to being off social media.
